Telecommunication Testing

Telecommunication Testing

Wireless devices have discovered its more extensive applications across variety of very high-tech products (Keyboard, Scanners, Laptops, and Printers etc.) to very low-end products including electronic toys. Numerous products operated on electrical power, can be functioned through the wireless devices namely Wi-Fi routers/modems, wireless mouse, wireless keyboard, wireless headphones, wireless smart watches, Wi-Fi USB pen-drives, wireless speakers etc. primarily for Convenience and Safety of people. Hence, Safety is also a matter of concern since it radiates certain amount of power.

 

Telecommunications Engineering Centre (TEC), a DoT nodal agency has been tasked to undertake Mandatory Testing & Certification of Telecom Equipment (MTCTE) for the sector to preview nearly 50 products in order to ensure network and device safety.

To address this issue, Hi Physix will add the testing facilities to examine wireless devices operations, performance and safety. The EMC/EMI test facility would also cover tests on various low power wireless devices are being widely used in the IT & Electronic products for satisfactory remote operations as per IS/IEC/TEC requirements.

At present Hi Physix is designated as a CAB by TEC vide TECCertificate No. : TEC/MRA/CAB/IND-D/58.The related scope of testing and testing charges are as below:
